SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY HERD
We know that no two cattle herds are the same. Geography, genetics, season, operation size, and many other factors can cause fluctuations in the nutritional needs of beef cattle. We know that one size doesn’t fit all.
IMPROVING IMMUNITY
Selenium is an antioxidant. Antioxidants, like selenium, keep excess free radicals in check and protect cells from oxidative stress. They accomplish this by neutralizing free radicals with the electron they need.
Once ingested, dietary selenium also becomes incorporated into at least 25 different proteins. These selenoproteins regulate the immune system and prevent it from harmfully over-reacting. According to the National Institute of Health, “Dietary selenium (Se), mainly through its incorporation into selenoproteins, plays an important role in inflammation and immunity. Adequate levels of Se are important for initiating immunity, but they are also involved in regulating excessive immune responses and chronic inflammation.”
